• There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

This is the best medium I watch and I'm sure dealers take notes. We express our frustrations, we laugh on others stupidity, we cry for others loss, we bond on same values and please add more if you wish. I don't need facebook for another medium TY.
 
How about on state listing spreed sheet print out?

Not sure that would be easily accessible on a smart phone if you are on the road. And if you were home, odds are unless you were a new owner you should have a pretty good idea about your local dealers.
 
WOW!

:thumbup: Wow! I like the fact that you got good reviews at Elk Grove Powersports, CA. Thanks for the reports. Would like to know about Fresno Clawson, Bakersfield, or Lancaster, CA. That would be greatly appreciated.

I would like to give a huge 👏☝️👍 Yo Johnny K's in Warren, Ohio and especially in Lodi, Ohio. Great service, sales and alaround customer support.

on the other hand a miserable 👇👎 to Hardings Park Cycle in Canton, Ohio. They try to charge for warranty work, I believe unmolicious, they don't know what was covered, and it took them over three weeks to do a service, yuck.

The only bad thing, yesterdays "worst" report could take a 180 degree turn the next time around. Or just the opposite can take place.

Not enough facts in most cases to make an educated decision. One of the reasons I don't like such a list. :bowdown::bowdown::bowdown: in advance.
 
Anyone heard ANYTHING about Broadway Powersports in Tyler Texas, The people were really great when they sold me the bike. Am wondering about the Service Department?
 
Lost my dealer

Anyone heard ANYTHING about Broadway Powersports in Tyler Texas, The people were really great when they sold me the bike. Am wondering about the Service Department?

Took my bike in for the DESS error problem today --- when I arrived, found out they are no longer Can Am dealer. Bummer. Purchased my first Spyder from them (2008) as well as my current ride. Dealer is still very active, just not Can Am (Longview Cycle and Ski).

Called Marshall and they would be glad to take care of my Spyder --- under warranty.

Can't answer to the dealer in Tyler --- I just don't like the traffic there and welcome a ride in the country to Marshall - the dealer did fix my 2010 Spyder once when it broke down in their area.

That's me. A fair description.
